During the tenth year of standardised beach surveys of man-made debris at Bird Island, South Georgia, a total of 408 items was collected. This represents a 92% increase on the total of 213 items collected in 1998/99, but is consistent with numbers in years prior to the 1998/99. A dramatic increase (310%) in the number of items collected over winter (April - September) from 41 items in 1998/99 Read More

The results of the fifth annual survey of entanglement of Antarctic fur seals at Signy Island, South Orkney Islands are reported for the 2000/2001 summer season. This is the first year in which there were no sightings of seals with neck collars of man-made debris. Data are compared with results from a parallel study undertaken at Bird Island, South Georgia in 2000/2001. In contrast to Signy Read More

During the 2000/2001 austral summer the eleventh annual beach debris survey was carried out at Signy Island, South Orkney Islands. Debris was cleared each month between November and March from three study beaches. The debris was counted, measured and classified by type, material, mass and size categories. A total of 16 items weighing 0.74kg was collected. The number of items and the total mass Read More

This paper reports on a 4 day forum for fishers held in New Zealand in 2000, to exchange information and develop practical measures to minimise incidental capture of seabirds in longline fisheries. Participants committed to undertake a number of activities and report back at a second forum that will be held in Hawaii in late 2002.

In this paper the boundaries of the CCAMLR statistical areas are examined for their relevance to the management of the krill fishery. A rationale for developing some new areas is developed based on data on krill distributions. The overall aim of the exercise was to reduce the large size of many of the existing statistical areas to the point where all areas where krill occur could be surveyed Read More

We use data collected on the CCAMLR-IWC Krill Synoptic Survey (2000) to investigate relationships between cetacean density, krill density and oceanographic conditions. We explore the use of generalized additive models (GAMs) to model these relationships, and show how these models can provide abundance estimates for sub-areas within the survey region, as well as for the survey region itself.
